Dear Jesus, on the eve your most holy b-day, please help in keeping Axel from doing any harm to this beautiful piece of ass in the near and distant future. And guide him in his wagon conversion.

Thanks. Amen.

Mh i really dont know how to explain that, the rear end of the flare didnt change much, i use the stock ABS M-Tech rear bumper so its really flexible. The bumper is mounted with slide-on brackets on each side which can be moved to set the right clearence, i will modify them to get it wider.

Can't wait to see it all in one color. All the different stages of primer and bare metal are throwing me off :lol:

The rear bumper should still be pretty close.. it looks like the forward and leading edges are still pretty close together to factory.
